  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

RED in Texas

Nacogdches TX

I am a student at SFA and have some experience with dvpro production using an older model sony dv cam. I shot docu still for my school feature length film along with continuity, art direction, and camera grabs for end titles. If a meeting time shows up that I can make I would love to join in if i could get a ride.

P.S.

I am absolutely stoked about this camera.
 
Moving from 35mm to HD: Is the Red One for me?

Moving from 35mm to HD: Is the Red One for me?

I'm a freelance cinematographer based in Austin. I shoot almost exclusively high level stock imagery for my personal collection represented by Getty Images. I just sold my Arri 2C 35mm package and am looking hard at the Red One, but also other HD packages in 1080 and 720. Anyone out there who would meet and visit with me about this switch? I plan to purchase my own package and travel with it. It's critical I select the correct camera, but I'm very new to the electronic side of things.

No board for New Mexico yet, so I'm trolling Texas (I'm from Texas) to see what's available. My husband is the writer/director of our team, and I'm producing. We're looking for a Red One, or a DP with one, for a micro-budget feature shoot, dates TBD. We'd rather not wait to receive a Red One, so if someone out there has one and is interested in selling, let me know (2nd choice would be to hire someone with a Red One, as the DP...not sure if our budget can handle this, though).

Thanks.

Hey gang,

I'm an independent Austin filmmaker (red reservation holder #396) and I was curious is anyone else out there would be interested in creating a "RedShare" program where we could call on each other for tradeout days on 2 camera shoots? would be a lot cheaper than each of us renting from each other.

obviously we'd want to start off heavily (heavily!) insured and maybe even start out by piggybacking on each others projects to make sure nothing goes wrong ...but it seemed like it might be a cheap way to get more bang for buck out of our Red bucks.

Post here is you're interested, and if we gen up enough interest, I'll create a mailing list or something.

Also, what happened to the idea of a meet-up? anyone still interested?

I'm game, and it sounds like (reading the forum) that a venue down south would be preferred...?

I would prefer a Thursday evening, myself, but am usually fairly flexible.
What's better for everyone else, weekend or midweek?

Me too.
 
I'm here in Houston as a producer looking for a DoP with a red for shooting later this year. Just finishing up a feature I shot end of last year with an Andromeda system. Trying to stay on the cutting edge...

Will also have a few features next year. I like to plan ahead on what I will be working with so I can get post ready.

by the way Mike Curtis thanks for the help at SXSW!
 
By the way, was there ever a meet of redusers in Austin? If it can be planned on a weekend I would certainly drive over. Maybe Mike can bring some 4K footage to look at....
 
Hey REMY, I was really bummed when I had the be out of town when "The Waiter" screend at WF. I really want to see it, the trailer looked great.

Jason called a few weeks ago and said you guys had a project coming up and wanted to talk with me about it. My RED will be in the January 10th shipment.
 
Will probably be doing a showing at my house in the near future. Just waiting on Audio to be truly finished. Drop me an e-mail so we can meet.


Would also like to get together with anyone else in TX that is getting a RED. Maybe we can try to get this meeting together in Austin now that the cameras have been released.

Mike, you are welcome to come spend a few hours putting mine through the paces once it arrives, see how it looks/shoots/feels. I'm an old hat at the electronics/digital stuff -- it's the DP stuff (zone system, place and fall and all that jazz) that throws me for a loop.

Regards,

Hi there. Glad to see and know there RED Users and filmmakers out this way.

Having only lived here for about a month in the Dallas area I am at a loss.

I was curious if anyone knew of a good production company to connect with.

Also if you ever need a 1st AC or 2nd AC I can be of great help.

Hey fellow dfw/tx filmmakers. I'm in Dallas, I own some lighting and support, but usually rent cam packages. It's interesting to see how many epic/scarlet owner ops there are here that I've never met...Cheers
 
Fellow Houston filmmakers,

I just moved to Houston from San Antonio and I want to make friends with local filmmakers. I don’t know anybody in Houston so I figured Reduser was the place to go. I’m mostly a screenwriter (I’ve written two screenplays) so I don’t own a Red camera (although i’m pretty familiar with cameras/filmmaking) but I wanted to offer whatever kind of help I could be to anyone willing to let me tag along on shoots or projects (I’m willing to offer up my car to lug stuff around). I’d also just like to meet up to watch films.
If anyone wants to help me out, please let me know. Alternatively, maybe you have tips on meeting filmmakers around here. Please let me know anything you think would help me out. Very much appreciated!

-Gabe
